"It is stated that once this teaching is revealed in this era, the Buddha images as well as the priests of the temples built in the Former and Middle Days will all lose their power to benefit people, and only this great teaching will spread throughout the entire land of Jambudvīpa. Since all of you have a bond with this teaching, you should feel reassured."

(Letter to Misawa

"'Myo [of myoho] means to revive' (WND-1, 149)—Nichiren Buddhism enables all people to revitalise their determination and brim with fresh, abundant life force.

"'Winter always turns to spring.' The Mystic Law allows us to lead joyous, fulfilling lives—to advance steadfastly, brushing aside all obstacles, confident of the arrival of a springtime of victory.

"'Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is the greatest of all joys' (OTT, 212). Our practice of Nichiren Buddhism enables us to demonstrate, with incomparable joy, the underlying power of the Bodhisattvas of the Earth, certain that we and our fellow members are all Buddhas."
